Is She Talking About Us?

In her review of Leonard Marcus' book, Minders of Make-Believe: Idealists, Entrepreneurs, and the Shaping of American Children’s Literature (in the NYT Book Review) Laura Miller says, "Marcus, a charming and nimble writer, makes a valiant effort to keep things interesting, but the editorial shake-ups and new printing technologies will be of interest primarily to historians and people in the industry."

About Me

I'm the author of eight books for children and young adults, all published by G.P. Putnam's Sons. I've republished Saving the Planet & Stuff as an eBook. Now I have experience wading in both the traditional and self-publishing pools. My essays have been published at The Millions and Literary Mama, and my short stories at Alimentum and Cricket. I have been blogging at Original Content for eleven years.
